I did it so Judah, its kings, and its officials would become an object of horror and of hissing scorn, an example used in curses.

After all of them have drunk the wine of the LORD’s wrath, the king of Babylon must drink it. 27 Then the LORD said to me,“Tell them that the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel says,‘Drink this cup until you get drunk and vomit. Drink until you fall down and can’t get up. For I will send wars sweeping through you.’
